Digital Courage? – You might as well be drunk.

Everyone knows the joke about “Liquid Courage” – saying and doing things you normally wouldn’t when you’ve been drinking some adult beverages of your choice.
Can be cute at times (especially when its playful), but it’s mostly obnoxious. Guys say things to girls they never would say if they weren’t well…drunk and hazy. Girls are way more impressionable when they’ve had a few as well. Everyone says dumb stuff. Some people do things they regret.
Sound familiar?
Digital courage.
You’re online, you’re talking in AIM, text, on Twitter, etc. Do you say/do things you normally wouldn’t be saying/doing in person? Do you support a cause on your Facebook status that you wouldn’t jump right in and help on the ground?
Do you say nice things to people to get their attention that you wouldn’t be telling them to their face?
Digital Courage makes you look like a drunk ass. Might as well grab a beer or 8.
Be yourself and speak your mind, no matter where you are.
